If you're in Marrakech, join us for an unforgettable experience—a magical sunrise over the Agafay Desert! See the sky turn brilliant shades of gold and orange.

Activity Details

Before sunrise, we'll pick you up at the selected meeting point in Marrakech to begin our journey to the Agafay desert, an oasis of tranquility on the outskirts of the city.

Upon arrival at the bivouac, we'll be greeted with a comforting welcome tea, the perfect prelude to our desert adventure. With the first light of dawn, we'll climb on the back of a camel for a leisurely 30-minute ride in traditional dress. Accompanied by the tranquility of the desert, we'll see the sun begin to appear over the horizon.

Then, we'll prepare for one of the most awaited moments, the sunrise! You're sure to be captivated as the sun slowly emerges over the dunes of the Agafay desert, creating an amazing palette of colors. Gold, orange, yellow? We'll see infinite combinations! A natural spectacle that you'll cherish forever.

After this magical moment, we'll replenish our energy with a delicious typical Moroccan breakfast in an unbeatable environment. Then, you'll have an hour of free time to relax, contemplate the scenery and enjoy the peace of the desert.

Finally, we'll start our way back to Marrakech, arriving at the starting point about 5 hours later.
